Studio Forme was founded in Rome in 1973 by Giorgio Funaro and Rita Rivelli. The studio combines production with restoring works and conservation activities. Their cultural education and an acquaintance with historical techniques along with an ongoing experimental activity are the foundations supporting their whole work.
The atelier relies on a decade-long experience of in-house professionals and of high-end external collaborators, technicians and researchers.
In time, they have gathered the skills needed to complement restoration with the artistic production of ceramic and glass, also involving high-profile, internationally renowned, artists.
The Studio also implements a large number of multimedia tools to support the cultural projects concerning the “trades” they are looking after. In this respect, the “”Enciclopedia multimediale delle Arti e Mestieri”” (Multimedia Encyclopedia of Arts and Trades ) has been awarded the 1996 Premio Pirelli for Science diffusion.

Studio Forme was founded by Giorgio Funaro and Rita Rivelli in 1973. It is a laboratory dedicated to the resoration and creation of objects in glass and ceramics. The vintage items and the new collections make this place magic, they stand out for their delicate balance between decoration and design, between perfection and uniqueness. The proximity to the church of Santa Cecilia is a further motivation to visit this amazing place of labour and poetry.
